Week 9

Week 9-

So the week before the show and I must say some reason I wasn't worried; it was just everything was comong together apart from my speech. I managed to do the intro fine it was just the ending that was not staying with me, thurthful it started to really annoy me but as the group was so helpful and kept supporting me gave me confidence that I could and can do It.

I had the help of individual people such as Charlie and Pagie as they were in my scene and they knew how important it was for me to do it. Me and Charlie took a few minutes out and helped me learn my lines by going through it by line by line. This took part on Thursday which I am glad that we did do it as later on Thursday I showed it yo the class for the first time,  I was nervous when I started but after I felt that nothing could defeat me, as I had over come something that I fear because im delisyx so I found reading it even harder but I over came it again.

Also this week we worked on the epilogues I tend to have a big input with this as I came up with the idea of us entering during the scene 12 as the whispers then do our tablos outside scene by scene; karen took my idea and adopted it with the beaths and the heads to clock, internal, audince at the end of the show. The idea from this came from the tablos that we worked on for the being of the show at first we tried to add it so we walked round and done them this was yet again one of my ideas it tend not to work as well as in which it could of done but the group as one tried the hardest to make it work.

I felt because I had such a imput with some of the scene it made to rethink of my career when I leave college, so truthfully now im in stuck as working on this and have a lecture that os welling to take on board our ideas for the performance has made me consider directing and has inspired me to start writing a script in which maybe one day ill get shear with the world.

week 7 & week 8

 week 7

This week we have mainly been looking at the scene one by one so that we could block each one alot faster. My scene was not one of the first to be blog so my group spent time looking at the script as the story and inner body launge that is not said stright away when looking at the scene at first time. Also i think deep down that i was worried about the fact; at this point i did not know my lines that well so my group spent time just going over them a few times during the day. To be thurthly it didnt really help i think it was the confindce of not being able to look at them if i lost them during the run through, so i decide to chanllenge myself and when we blocked it again not to have them in my hand and it turnt out that i did know them.

As a group we had to look at pur scene with in different ways to do with relistic this really helpped me understnd the body lanuge of Anna, to make me get in the  mind-set of her; i have started to become her as soon as we start in the class room; this can be dangrouse in aay so i have to make sure i shake it out complety when finshed; i think this is important i do this even though anna has made me notice small parts of my own personality that i enjoy now.

Anna has a shakespear speach which at first i hated but after working on it i have frown on it and we worked alone on it for the first time, to help me get what is actually said during the speach as it is important to understnad what you are saying as an actor, so the the audince understnads you and belives you when relating the lines; when we began working on the speach i struggled with it to be thurthful, as shakespear use words such as thou and thy I found it hard to get my lips around these words. Also some of the sturcture of the scenecing is different to what is now said in the morden day as line like 'a vison full of majusty' I found hard due to the fact how sthe sturcture i cant quite rememeber in what i was sying but all i know that it was wrong.

while working on the this shakespear speech i have notice my artucaling on distion has improved with a big different as it has been chanllenge with 'th'.

during this week just becuase ypu wasnt working on your own scene it dosnt not mean you could just sit round and do nothing so while i was waiting nce again i put more ideas into imogen and alica scene and helped imogen with how to recat by relating back to real lide to help her make the audince belive it was real. as she sturge with this and her reaction when she was telling alilica to get out the warodroob didnt seem enough at first so i told her to act as if her mum walked to her room and she didnt want her to see some thing that so she shuted at her to tell her to get out; after i told her this it improved as she began to found her charactar strong parts with the line.

week 8

week was once again more one to one on scene with karan and time to catch up with work that has not been done, even though we done some samll workshops such as;...
. Drawings - it was 5 images that releated to the script in that spring to mind stright away so one of mine in which i could remeber was hole due to the fact that even though every caharactar though that no one really knew about the awrdrobe they were wrong as in the last scene it was in musmue therefore all the actually hisroy has been revlease.
.1 mintue- this is were each scence had to improve there scene in a mintune to get their scene across but in style, my scene uses the style of childern this worked well as it bought out the small laughters within the scene.
. Brecht 8/12 tablobs- this worked for our scene as it helpled us more as group to understnad the unseen parts with in the scene and what actuallu had to be highlighted without us even nowing it also it helpled me understand the oder and the each scene a bit better.

later in the week we worked on some stance to help us underline the unseen within our character my first stance was Brecht and it was to show the audience that I was hiding the plauge and did not want my friends to found out that I had the plauge. 

I found that these stance really helped me become my character and as I added some of these stance to my speach which helped me remember it.
